Lucy is sitting on the edge of the farmhouse roof, human-shaped, not moving or really doing much at all. Occasionally she swings her bare feet in the breeze.

She would be quite accepting of company.

Sokka is not so much with the climbing (as he's certain Steph delights in telling people). Still, he needs to talk to Lucy. This presents a problem.

Luckily, since she's on the edge of the roof, he's able to think of a solution.

"Hey!"

From the top floor of the farm house, Sokka is sitting on a windowsill, leaning out with his hands holding tight to the edge to keep from falling out, looking up at Lucy.

Well, it works.

[littlestcooper]

"Hi!"

She grins at him.

Then she stands up, walks along the edge of the roof, and sits down again much closer to Sokka's window.

Optional wings make fear of heights a non-issue.

He grins back. It's infectious.

"Hi! Hey, listen. Is there a place that's really, really cold and covered in snow, all year round?"

[littlestcooper]

Nod.

"Yes. Two."

Beat.

Headtilt.

"Why?"

[notanoptimist]

"I wanna go for a while. Which one's better?"

This is the most cheerful he's been in days, and mostly because Lucy is excited and grinny.

"North Pole's closer. It has bears."

They are tasty, but probably not to Sokka.

"South Pole's farther. Ocean in the way. I haven't been there."

[notanoptimist]

Sokka nods, thinking about this for a few moments.

"...stone, fish, seals, all that stuff? Places to camp?"

[littlestcooper]

"Yes."

[notanoptimist]

"Is it hard to get to? For, uh... non-dragons?"

[littlestcooper]

Shrug. "It's land most of the way up."

So, you know, not that hard.

[notanoptimist]

"Rocketship."

He smiles and waves.

"Thanks!"

And pops back inside.
